Stupid unimportant question

There is only 1 time I can remember that we had an FAM on board that actually looked like what I pictured a FAM would look like. Mostly they just look like everybody else.

Nobody expects that Spanish Inquisition!

They're incredibly noticeable on long int'l flights when they stay awake the whole time and don't do anything but stare at the back of the seat (some carriers let them watch movies).

It has to be a horribly boring job.
 
there is a flight attendant covering infront of the door, and then the pilot will quickly open the door just enough to get out... when he does he'llt ake care of his business and then same ting, the FA gets infront of the door, cockpit door opens up just enough to let the pilot pass through, door gets locked again

:yeahthat: This is the procedure. They used to use airline issued cathaters (spelling) :sarcasm::sarcasm:
 
Ssshhh, Don't tell anyone. It's the Little Johnny and the Lady J adapter :D :

Oh, I've "sent a message to Leo" many times in flight! :)

Well, it's really been a "message to Doug Parker" recently, but you can use the facilities on the aircraft and there's a "only for those that need to know" procedure.

Extreme word!

I was on a LAX-AMS flight and right off the bat, there was a "passenger" sitting before anyother coach boarded (was one of the first "coach" to board) and he just sat there reading a magazine. During the movies, never put headphones on, never fell asleep once. Once the lights went off, he turned his on and continued to stare forward, occasionally having a sip of coke.

he turned his lights on when the other lights turned off?

he blinded himself! :D
 
I have seen pilots use the Airplane Lav quite a few times in the last year. The procedure someone mentioned about the FA running interference is true.

Don't be so sure that's an air marshal. Trust me.

True, but the guy never had a wink of sleep, and never put any audio device in his ears, was boarded before everyone else, and was sitting right in the front, by the stairs upstairs.


BTW, did i mention i met a AWA A320 capt on that flight because i had a boeing tag on my baggage (the 787). Found out he was persian also, and had a great time talking for about 4 hours. Told me to keep in contact with him and as soon as i hit 2500TT (irregardless of TPIC) to hit him up. Gave me a card and told me he's part of the hiring department. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet!!
